While enrolled as a full-time student at Yale University,
Bryant was discovered by a modeling scout from Next Models Management. For
several years, Bryant pursued a career as a fashion model in Paris and
subsequently entered an exclusive contract with Tommy Hilfiger. Bryant continues
to model between films as a cover subject for Victoria's Secret and in a
number of prestigious print campaigns.

Program under the umbrella of A Better Chance, an organization that reaches out
to minority talent to enrich their academic opportunities. Bryant was herself an
enrollee in the A Better Chance program and later earned an academic scholarship
to Yale University.
